Dr Beth Friedland

Dr. Friedand (Park Ophthalmology) was fine; I only saw her once and she seemed ok. However, her office manager, Jenny is an officious, arrogant, picayune individual who is nearly totally incompetent. She talks down to you as if you're 6 years old, gives incomplete, misleading instructions and then claims that you didn't understand her. Today, I came to their office for my appointment for a for cataract surgery pretest, scheduled 10 days ago. They said they didn't get the referral until yesterday, so they didn't have an appointment for me! Jenny claims she told me that the appointment was"provisional" pending receipt of the referral. SHE DID NOT. She went on to claim that their office had to call Humana to get a referral because I didn't do so. THIS IS A LIE. I immediately called Humana for the referral. Jenny said I had to make another appointment and that the surgery would have to be after Jan 1. I told them what I thought of them and left. NEVER USE PARK OPHTHALMOLOGY

First of all, her office staff made me feel comfortable, even though I was being worked in for an emergency. Then, when the Dr saw me, she got to the source of my problem quickly and I was much better in just a few days.

She helped my mother to see well again without glasses. My mother had cataract surgery

Very caring and knowledgeable. was able to diagnose the problem when others had tried without success.
